Twitter is in the works of becoming a TV series. The series will be based on the quick status messages. The series will be unscripted. Novelist Amy Ephron will team up with Reveille Productions, the studio behind the American version of The Office and Brillstein Entertainment the studio behind The Sopranos. According to Variety magazine the program will be "putting ordinary people on the trail of celebrities in a revolutionary competitive format." This isn't surprising knowing the popularity and growth of celebrities using Twitter. Twitter's co-founder Biz Stone says that the company has "a lightweight, non-exclusive,agreement with the producers which helps them move forward more freely"
